Steve the owner was very passionate and excited to share everything the store had to offer as well as their custom services.

“Kids won't understand how we grew up with comic books unless more stores like this exist and thrive. I've been in here several times, usually just to browse and wax nostalgic on my teenaged years. Vernon, the shop owner, is a delight to talk with. He's got a heck of a selection of marvel, dc, and other comic book titles in stock, plus games and anime and magazines. It's quite refreshing and I highly recommend you visit!”

“Walked in not really knowing what I wanted but knowing that I wanted to get back into RC cars. Alex took the time to walk me through all that was new and made some great recommendations on what to look for. Decided on a new Traxxas Stampede, but wanted more power so both Alex and Gary helped to upgrade the motor and ESC, get new 3S battery packs and had me ready for some fun! Got the unit home, charged up the packs and took it for a rip...AWESOME!! The level of service and help from these two guys was second to known! They know their stuff extremely well, and are great at offering advise. This is THE place to shop for all your hobby needs!!”

“I had an excellent time visiting their store. The owner/staff was very kind to chat with me about current baseball. I found the exact card I was looking for. They have a wide selection of great athletes... including many Chicago favorites. I was amazed at their jersey displays. Lastly I'll mention the authenticated Babe Ruth signed baseball. Go see it before it's gone!! They have great jersey packs as well. Support local business ?”

“Very nice. Just avoid one guy named Dale. Very self absorbed and likes to try to prove his knowledge under a guise of playing like he’s helping you. Otherwise a great place for slot-car’ing.”

“don't quite understand the unpleasant reviews about Mr. Bergman(bergie) I've purchased from him MANY times and have had mostly pleasant interactions, maybe he has to be a certain way in a hobby we're everyone believes they "know more" or has different ideas of what memorabilia is worth, I'll continue to do business with the person who's been doing it longer!”

“I stopped in Michael's this evening to get some supplies for a Halloween party. The woman who helped me at the register was the one of the KINDEST HUMANBEINGS I HAVE MET. She had a goofy sense of humor, was incredibly helpful, and truly MADE MY DAY. I hope she reads this, thank you for being you, I hope the Boston Orioles have fantastic season next year!”

“My family and I went to buy some loose Pokemon cards that my sons were interested in. The cards that they wanted were very random and consisted of Pokemon using all different energies as well as Trainers. The owner Jester was there and he was extremely helpful, helping us find over 30 of the cards that they were looking through by going through binders and loose cards in a box, which was extremely tedious. We've been to many Gamers Worlds where the employees running the store seem like they couldn't care less about their customers. We were fortunate to have the exact opposite experience here and want to thank Jester so much for his kindness and patience!”

“Great selection and a clean store. Needs more staff, they are qoeking with a skeleton staff which is sad because they have great people that work there. They added self checkout kiosks which probably explains the lack of staff. Shame on corporate on doing that because I bought alot more when you had people to guide around and give creative suggestions and upsell. Their framing department is very knowledgeable and has great people. Got a ton of stuff done there including the gi my Sensi gave me.”

“Nice place but those self service machines are not so comfortable to use as supposed to. You definitely need to talk to associate a couple times before checkout.”

“First time at this location. Note that the main photos shown are old. They told me that they don’t bring hardly any plushies in anymore and their focus is more on figures. They have a huge selection of sh figuarts and figma and then some other really cool statutes (non posable). They also have other anime knickknack things, if you’re a anime nerd this place is for you.”

“Recently purchased a new frame to display my diploma, which I had allowed to languish in the closet for decades and was reminded that in addition to craft items, Michael's also had a frame department. The frame, being oversized, had some built in hangers, but since I didn't feel comfortable with aligning the screw-in units on the wall, I simply wanted an old fashioned wire hanger on the back. Given my experience with other frame shops, I expected I would have to drop it off and come back the following week to pick it up. The young gentleman working in the department, Flavius, surprised me by telling me I could swing back within the hour and pick it up. I went off to do some shopping at the Eddie Bauer Outlet and within a half hour received a phone call from Flavius telling me I could pick up the frame! Thanks, Flavius, for a great experience. Wish all shopping could be this excellent.”

“Employees were super helpful in helping me pick out cards with my limited knowledge. The new location is a little tricky to find but they still had plenty of games and cards. Hoping they add some tables so we could try some games out in store.”

“Bought a sega and Star Wars Xbox 360 that work great! They’re a little heavy on their prices but overall great place to look for games, consoles, cards, collectibles, etc…”
